I downloaded the CW Get program,hooked up a jumper from my rigs headphone jack to the mic jack on the computer,tuned in a QSO, set the input to external mic,out put to speakers then click apply. All I get is jibberish like this (copied from the display)...ieee e e t e ti tt ee te ttttt eeee ieee eeee w eee tetetet teet tee mcattie aoniekttmeeteieeeened.I'm guessing I have something set wrong but see no directions how to set this up.

Thanks for the help. I hope this will work well for me as I would like to work CW but I can't seem to copy it(been trying for 8 years now). I can send with a paddle OK and have been told I have a nice fist so this may be just what I need.

Update:I tried the suggestions and it works! As long as a signal is a "5" copy there is very little not copied and alot of that I was able to fill in just from what I either heard or put the pieces of the puzzle together. THANK YOU FOR THE HELP!!!I can see a CW qso in the near future(Maybe tonight).73 & gud dx , Mike

As for CW copy from the air try MultiPSK. It is one of the best CW decoders so far.In the free version, however, its great 'QRP decoding' feature available for only 10 minutes after each program restart.CW Skimmer is another good but more expensive alternative.

Currently software can not substitute human CW copy but provides some 'crutches' until you master it.
